week 15 - reflective report

      In fact, group intelligence class is another major class. The reason I heard this was because of the word 'group'. My major is advertising and public relations, and people are important. It is more important to read human-generated information and human minds than any arithmetic data. But this class of collective intelligence did. Various people edit the parts they are interested in, and on blogs they talk about the parts they are interested in. I took a leave of absence from school last year and worked as an intern at an advertising company, where I felt the importance of looking at what my peers were interested in. So I really wanted to take this class.

     During the class, it was good to see what topics people were interested in and what opinions they usually expressed, and it was good to experience writing sheets that were not usually written. In my major, there are mainly three categories: those who write well, those who write well, those who write well, and those who read trends well and plan well. Those three categories of people come together to form a creative idea strategy. We are used to having sources and creating new things than events that have already occurred. Maybe that's why Wikipedia was more difficult. I was more familiar with the process of simply referring to the events and unfolding my opinion than with a series of actions to write the truth about what had already happened.

     Friends in the Department of Information Sociology are used to using data symbols. It was my first time doing it here and it was a little difficult. I'm a little slower at using computers than my peers called Digital Native. So as soon as I entered the school, I went around and learned a lot about my major program. I didn't expect to face another crisis in fourth grade. While editing Wikipedia, I received a lot of advice from strangers in the first month and experienced that my edits were deleted altogether. At first, I was so scared that I wanted to run away. I hated the moment when I found the information and attached the source, but I said I couldn't trust it, and the edits I wrote disappeared with no information at all. I was so scared of people coming to my talk page and leaving advice. But the professor kindly left a comment saying, "Read their advice carefully and ask me anytime if you don't know."I think I was a little relieved to read it. If I had only taken a major class in our department, I wouldn't have thought of trying editing like this. I felt that the spirit of challenging a clumsy and unknown field was very important.

     I want to say thank you to the professor. I kept writing a cover letter and went to an interview this semester, and I happened to receive a question related to the data during the interview. I think Wikipedia is also data written by consumers. And according to the class, there are more people who refer to Wikipedia. It was good to be able to deal with consumer data aspects. I'm worried that my professor might be disappointed because I'm not good enough, but thank you!
